    It doesn’t matter for shit if you protest. What matters is votes in elections.

      The protests matter because they destroy the narrative that the silent majority is behind the AfD views.

        Sure, protest all you want, but for the love of all that’s good - get out and vote at each and every opportunity, or these shit lords will just get reelected.

          Oh, completely agree there. Voting is absolutely necessary, just not always sufficient.
